Just moments from George Square, The Collector’s Hall is one of Glasgow’s most exciting new wedding venues, bringing together historic architecture, contemporary design and standout food in the heart of the city. Housed within the former Parish Halls, originally built in the 1850s, the venue has been carefully restored and reimagined as a refined yet flexible setting for modern city weddings.
For couples searching for a luxury Glasgow wedding venue, city centre wedding venue near George Square, or an exclusive-use wedding space in Glasgow, The Collector’s Hall offers something genuinely distinctive.
A grand first impression
Wedding guests arrive via a dedicated entrance, separate from the adjoining hotel, leading through a tiled hallway of dark wood and patterned floors. The feel is unmistakably Glasgow – reminiscent of a traditional tenement close – but elevated, setting the tone for what lies ahead.
The journey opens into The Collector’s Courtyard, a light-filled, contemporary space capped with a glass ceiling. Soft lighting, relaxed seating areas and a sleek bar make this an ideal spot for welcome drinks or post-ceremony celebrations. Signature spritzes and bespoke couple’s cocktails are popular choices, helping to create an atmosphere that feels social and unforced from the outset.

The heart of the venue: The Collector’s Hall
At the centre of the venue sits The Collector’s Hall itself – a dramatic space defined by its chequerboard floor and impressive domed ceiling. Designed to host ceremonies, wedding breakfasts and evening receptions, the room balances classic architectural detail with a clean, modern aesthetic. It’s a space that works beautifully with minimal styling, allowing couples to let the architecture do the heavy lifting.
This versatility makes it particularly appealing for couples planning a Glasgow city wedding ceremony and reception in one venue, with seamless flow from day to night.

The Liberty Suite: flexible and private
Upstairs, the mood shifts to something calmer with the Liberty Suite. Featuring high ceilings, ornate mouldings and another statement dome, this elegant space can be adapted to suit each couple’s plans. It works equally well as a ceremony room, a private dining space, a bridal party hub or a relaxed morning preparation suite.
With two adjoining bedrooms and a central bathroom, the Liberty Suite offers privacy and flexibility – ideal for couples who value having a dedicated space away from the main celebrations.
Thoughtful details throughout
Small but meaningful touches define the experience at The Collector’s Hall. From handwritten welcome notes to carefully coordinated transitions between spaces, the focus is firmly on making the wedding day feel effortless for couples and their guests. Quiet corners for time out, attentive event management and a clear understanding of how weddings unfold all contribute to a venue that feels considered rather than showy.
Although connected to the AC Hotel by Marriott Glasgow, The Collector’s Hall operates very much as its own entity, including a private kitchen dedicated solely to weddings.
Food that matches the setting
Food is a major highlight here. Led by executive chef John-Paul Giraud, the culinary team oversees both the wedding menus and the hotel’s Hazel restaurant. Menus focus on seasonal Scottish produce, thoughtful presentation and flavour-led dishes that feel special without being overworked.
Couples can choose from a range of curated wedding menus or work with the team to create a bespoke dining experience, making this venue particularly appealing for food-focused weddings.
Accommodation in the heart of the city
The venue offers 22 Heritage Suites for the couple, family and close friends, with a further 223 bedrooms available at preferential rates within the adjoining four-star hotel. For couples planning a Glasgow city centre wedding with on-site accommodation, this makes logistics simple for both local and travelling guests.
